HP is working on memristors - http://www.hpl.hp.com/news/2008/apr-jun/engineering_memristo.... According to wikipedia they already created such a prototype - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memristor#Potential_application....


I should have been more specific. I'm familiar with all sorts of non-volatile memory (flash, etc.) but I'm not aware of any modern computer that uses it as main memory (that is, directly addressable RAM as opposed to connected via a storage bus).

I think the last thing I used that would qualify as such was the Apple Newton.
